这首歌曲选择朱丽第二张新专辑《Pages》,她被冠以一连串头衔“歌手”、“歌曲作者”、“圣三一和皇家音乐学院的毕业生”、“音乐教师”,甚至是“模特”,不过我更愿意把她看作是一位冒险家,正如她自己所崇尚的,“简简单单”。
朱丽曾作为合唱演员,跟随多个乐队和团体(包括爱尔兰室内合唱团、艾努纳以及凯尔特女人)在世界各地表演;也参加过《大河之舞》的演出,并且担任过《舞者之王》的领唱。与此同时,她也创作一些自己的歌曲,在酒吧、俱乐部之类的场所演唱。这几乎是往来于两个截然不同世界的生活。在酒吧里,她被看作是某种类型的古典艺术家;而在其他艺术家看来,她像是平常的创作型歌手。在如何自我定位的问题上,朱丽也曾感到困惑,直到她意识到,应当从她所学过的东西中汲取灵感,而不是一味地去回避。
歌词:
I know not your heart or your mind or your name
Your Achilles heel or from where you came
Though it’s written in the stars my desires will flame
I might take a pass on what the stars are saying
You’re impossibly beautiful, is that ‘cause I’m waiting
Is that ‘cause I’m looking or is it just ‘cause you are
The indignant look as you catch the eye
Of the onlooker caught in a gaze at thine
As you’re innocently flaunting your beauty, ‘ah!’
You’ve no idea how beautiful you are
You’re impossibly beautiful, is that ‘cause I’m waiting
Is that ‘cause I’m looking or is it just ‘cause you are
You’re not laid so bare by the vanity fare
To tamper with your charms…oxygen in a jar
You’re not an assembled cocktail of bits and not
A stuck together look all made up with tricks
You’re impossibly beautiful, is that ‘cause I’m waiting
Is that ‘cause I’m looking or is it just ‘cause you are
You don’t play the love game of toxic love
Of trading love for beauty the winning of
Will you ever wish you knew what a spell you cast
Or maybe it’s a beauty you’ll always have
You’re impossibly beautiful, is that ‘cause I’m waiting
Is that ‘cause I’m looking or is it just ‘cause you are
